Headshot Wizard - Chapter 507
Chapter 507
“Everyone, the first thing we need to do now is to calm down.”
In the bright conference room, everyone gathered together again.
Before that, they had tried all the methods, trying to close the protective cover of the spacecraft.
However, the result was a failure.
The unique chip of the Crimson Scorpion has a powerful effect. Once inserted, the spacecraft automatically enters a state of the highest level of alert-in this state, it is impossible to manually close the protective cover. It is extremely difficult to even cut off the power source of the protective cover.
When the gnomes were designing, they deliberately protected the power source of the protective cover perfectly. Even if each floating boat is equipped with a special engineering wizard, it will take at least twelve hours to turn on the power source and cut off the protective cover from this level.
Twelve hours, this time is too long. The wizards on the ship didn’t know what would happen during this time period!
They are equivalent to being locked in the floatship by their own protective shield, and they can only watch the Crimson Scorpion control the Demon Hunter Spider to do whatever they want.
In fact, a giant creature similar to a demon spider, its own combat ability is not too exaggerated. This thing is between the second-order monster and the third-order monster, as long as there is a powerful second-level wizard squad, it can be bombarded with witchcraft. The embarrassment of the problem is that the sorcerers on the airship who are good at attacking witchcraft caught a lot of them, but they were locked in a cage and could not use their own methods.
What is even more depressing is that although this creature has average combat effectiveness, it has its own uniqueness-their spider silk is very sticky and can hold many things. In addition, the spider silk is accompanied by a decent witchcraft weakening effect, which can be regarded as a small nemesis of wizards. But these are not the most troublesome parts of the demon hunting spider. The most terrifying feature of this thing is that it is powerful.
The floating boat has a power cabin, and it is through the power cabin that the magic power in the reserve magic stone is converted into the driving force for advancement.
For commercial transportation, this power is strong enough to carry a floating boat from the mountain city of Gordon to the distant deciduous hills.
But compared to the Demon Hunter Spider, this motivation is not enough.
Although under the operation of Regis, the eighth floating craft reversed its direction and moved forward in the opposite direction with full power; but in front of the powerful power of the Demon Slayer, it was still pulled step by step into the depths of darkness. It’s just that this progress has been delayed a lot.
They still need other strategies to find a way out.
…
“Calmness? What we need is not calmness, but strategy, a strategy for success.”
The captain couldn’t help but muttered, “If we can’t figure out a way, we’ll just wait to die.”
“The nest of the demon hunter spider is full of stickiness, and it constitutes a small witchcraft weakening field. If we are in that place, we will be in a very disadvantageous situation to fight with it.” Rogers, another representative of Nightingale, said in a deep voice. Said: “The captain is right. Before we reach the demon hunter spider’s lair, we must do something.”
“It’s useless.” Regis shook his head and said, “Didn’t we have tried it in the previous half an hour? All wizards have tried their own witchcraft, and no one can break the protective shield. This thing is too strong. I used to think this design was simply a genius, but now I found out that the gnomes didn’t leave us a back door, damn it!”
“It is not necessary to break the protective cover.”
Lance squinted and said, “As long as someone can get out, just kill the demon hunter spider.”
“How can you get out without breaking the shield?” Rogers said strangely: “Even a wizard who is proficient in space witchcraft can’t get past the shield, right?”
Lance shook his head silently: “I’m just making a suggestion.”
“Useless advice is wasting everyone’s lives.” The captain sarcastically said: “Perhaps we should indeed investigate whether there is a wizard on this ship who has the ability to pass through this protective shield.”
Lance tilted his head slightly, too lazy to care about him.
What he said is not unreasonable. This suggestion made by Lance does seem impossible—though he himself has the ability to stand out from the siege, it is basically impossible to kill the demon hunter with his own power— What’s more, even if the Demon Hunter Spider is killed, what will happen?
They are now dragged into the inexplicable tunnel, completely lost. Under some mysterious interference, the communication equipment and positioning device were all paralyzed.
Even if he could kill the Demon Hunter Spider, they would have to grope their way forward in the vast darkness. You know, they are in the hinterland of the First Mountain Range. This ghost place will encounter ideas at any time. If they can’t return to the original route, the future of the eighth floating boat is also worrying.
So he didn’t even mention that he was indeed capable of passing through the protective shield.
…
Soon, the results of the investigation came out.
The result was not unexpected. There were nearly sixty wizards on board, and everyone tried something. There are even two wizards who are good at space witchcraft, but their experiments have failed without exception.
The original design of the protective cover itself took into account the characteristics of space teleportation witchcraft that may be used by external enemies invading, so a special device to isolate the space teleportation point was set on the protective cover. These devices are part of the protective cover and cannot be separated.
This result made Lance a little helpless, in the end, the one who could cross out was really alone.
At this time, he was even more reluctant to tell his secrets. When he is not a last resort, he is not willing to face the powerful demon spider alone-let alone when the number and intention of the enemy are unknown. If by any chance I went out, I met a bunch of wizards who hunted the spider and the scarlet scorpion. Wouldn’t it be my own death?
At the moment, everyone is sitting in the meeting room sadly, thinking hard about strategies.
As time passed by, the captain and others became more and more irritable.
Everyone feels panicked. They are locked in their cages and cannot escape; they don’t know what they are about to face. This feeling is terrible. The fear of the unknown can easily spread. The ship was full of complaints and fears.
An hour later, there was a rustling sound in a corner that was almost forgotten.
Everyone stood up unbelievably and looked at the corner.
In that place, the ship’s correspondent had been tinkering with the communication device made by the gnomes, but the device had been suppressed in a certain way before and lost its effect; but at this moment, he suddenly found something general and said loudly: ” Adults, I connected to the channels of floats No. 1 and No. 2!”
“Great! This is the first good news I heard today!”
The captain immediately beamed his eyebrows: “Raven, if I can escape this time, I will definitely give you a raise.”
The crowd immediately surrounded them.
The fixed channel of the communication equipment was unstable at first, filled with a lot of rustling sounds, and then it became much clearer.
“Wait… adults, not only us, but all the floats have resumed communication, and we can communicate with other captains and even the person in charge.”
The correspondent simply unplugged the small handset.
The sound suddenly expanded countless times.
“Number One, Number One… This is Captain Sorofo of Ship Fourteen. Can you determine our location?”
“This is number nine. We are entangled by a damn demon hunter spider. The protective cover cannot be closed. Ask for instructions.”
“Our experience is similar, but we are also a demon hunter spider. The protective cover has been replaced with a chip, and we are locked inside…”
The disturbing voices immediately irritated everyone who had just resumed communication.
The group was busy for a long time before the captains successfully completed the exchange.
The wizards on each ship also knew each other’s situation.
Surprisingly, not all floats received the same treatment-floats No. 1 and No. 2 did not encounter any attacks. They still stayed in their original positions at first. Their people found the “black holes” on the deck that could move, spread, expand and shrink at will.
It is precisely because of these “black holes” that the remaining floaters “disappear”.
They pursued the “black hole” and tried to launch the emergency wave band at the “black hole”. As a result, this attempt finally succeeded after half an hour.
Fourteen floating boats resumed contact again.
But the problem also came. Only two floats did not have a problem, and the remaining twelve floats all encountered the same predicament.
Their location is unknown, the place to be towed is not clear, and they are trapped in the ship by the demon hunter spider and protective shield. There is no good way to solve this dilemma.
“Listen, everyone, I am Isa, the vice president of the Pope Chamber of Commerce. According to the clues we have at hand, it is almost certain that the incident on the floatboat was caused by the Crimson Scorpion behind the scenes, but we have not yet Find out what their purpose is. The biggest problem now is not the Demon Hunting Spider, but the Scarlet Scorpion and the incident of the Whirling Path!”
“I’m sure they changed the structure of the circling trail somehow. They must have this kind of map in their hands. The problem is that we can’t get it.”
“This is the key. We have to find a way to get the map of the maneuver trail and get the specific location of each float, so that we can hope to break through the current predicament.”
Through the establishment of contact information, Isa of the No. 1 floating boat issued the above orders to everyone.
After he finished speaking, Lance immediately went forward and added: “The location problem can actually be solved. Since we have twelve ships captured by the Demon Hunter and are being towed, our destination must be the same. That’s the den of the demon hunter spider!”
“In other words, we are very likely to meet in a short time! But then our situation will be very passive.”
